If you are opting to read this article, it is pretty evident that you are aware of Microsoft’s newest launch of the Windows 11 operating system. The new operating system was launched at a big event on the 24th of June of 2021. The new Microsoft (MS) Build update is said to have never been this confusing but interesting at the same time which is attracting users.

According to its teaser, the new Windows 11 operating system seems to be the next reality. Amidst many speculations, here is the list of features of the new operating system and the speculations made beforehand by users.

Can Windows 10 and Windows 11 Co-exist on a Device Together?

This is where a statement given by Microsoft comes into place, which clearly stated that the Windows 10 would be the last version of its kind and its updates would also be provided in the form of cumulative updates. As there is already a vast development that has been ongoing on the windows 10 21 HZ project it doesn’t seem to get over in the near future.

Many media outlets and users have made several speculations about the new operating system and these conclusions are made according to the various “hints” dropped by Microsoft that just don’t seem to be coincidences. The speculations were as follows:

  1. The windows logo is supposedly going to turn into an “11” in the shadow while the frame changes.
  2. The event of the launch was set to start at 11 AM ET because the company is located on the west coast and they would not have selected such an early launch timing without any valid reason.
  3. And that the 21 H2 Insider builds were going to be dropped by 24th June 2021.

Now let’s look at the upcoming features on the Windows 11 operating system that is set to be launched in the June 2021 update. The day you install the windows 11 operating system it will be a memorable day full of bugs and new features guaranteed just like with the windows 10 operating system.

Start of an Era: Microsoft’s Windows 11 New OS Features

  1. File Explorer Tab: When this tab is compared with any modern-day application, users are going to miss the concept of several tabs on it.
  2. Linux Embedded File Explorer: In the new operating system, Microsoft is supposedly planning to integrate the Windows subsystem for Linux into the file explorer. As known, they already have a Linux icon on the left panel of the explorer
  3. Storage health monitoring: Microsoft often adds new functionality with the clear intention to protect the user’s data. This new feature will be able to easily detect any abnormalities in the hardware that is NVMe SSD and it will proceed to inform its users about what is needed to be done in the given period.

If any user receives such a notice it is recommended to back up the personal data immediately. The start menu is said to be shifted to the center of the taskbar. The action center is supposedly going to look more attractive than ever. It will also have better animations and a new set of icons that will replace the old image of the Windows operating system giving your device an entirely new and fresh look.

Windows 11 Release Date

When will the “next big thing” that is the Windows 11 operating system be aired for all? This seems to be a Common Question for all the users and it seems like Microsoft May launch its new operating system in September – October. It is the second major update slot in 2021. If they do decide to launch it in the slot the users might get two sets of Windows operating systems launching simultaneously. They are of course the Windows 10 version 21 H2 and the new Windows 11 OS.

“Windows as a service” is to get a new version at six-monthly intervals. The newer ones usually are set to continue getting updates for at least 18 to 30 months. But the same thing does not apply to the “long-term servicing channel” which is LTSC.

If you want to study or look into each one of these release notes, you would notice each one of them bears an expiry date. And that date 14th October 2025.

So it is understood and assured that Windows 10 will not be going at least for a good 2–3 years. If it doesn’t get replaced by the new Windows 11 operating system. Though the Azure Internet of Things (IoT) and the LTSC would be excluded from this. Looking at records, Microsoft has always provided advanced notices regarding the servicing at least two years prior. So rest assured, users can think of the year 2025 as the year when windows 10 might get dumped.
